I read lots of these types of books and I loved this one. It's about two girls, Deeba and Zanna, who are schoolmates in London. Weird stuff has been happening to Zanna recently. People (and animals!) she's never met seem to know her and someone walked up to her in a cafe and said, "schwazzy." Whatever that means. Pretty soon, the girls find themselves on an exciting adventure in a very strange city called "UnLondon" where the conventions of our lives have been turned topsy-turvy and nothing is quite as it seems. This book plays around with standard plotlines and kept surprising me. The best part is that although it's catalogued in my library as adult Sci-Fi, other libraries have it in Teen and one library even has it in Children's--it could truly be read and enjoyed by all ages.
